Crumbling Walls By Kristina Reardon (2017)

July 6, 2017

Long River Graduate Writing Award, Winner (2017) “Petra, she say there be bones,” my grandmother told me, pointing beyond me to the old castle on top of the hill. The frame of the old, Slavic structure was about as beautiful as a decaying tooth with jagged corners. A revolting brownness permeated the place. Even so,… More Crumbling Walls By Kristina Reardon (2017)

    An Interview with Poet Trista Mateer

    Lauren Ablondi Olivo, Interviews Editor Spilled ink. It’s a term that’s been popularized within the last few years, especially on social media sites such as Tumblr, Twitter, and Instagram.

    Where Fiction Meets Life: A Trip to the Breakers

    February 15, 2019
    Lilia Shen, Managing Editor  If I’m remembering correctly, the Vanderbilts called it the “Breakers” because when you stand on the balcony, looking over the cliff the mansion is nestled on, you can hear the sound of the ocean waves breaking on the stone walls in the distance. The sound is reminiscent of glass shattering into… More Where Fiction Meets Life: A Trip to the BreakersRead More »

    From a Graduate’s Perspective

    February 14, 2019
    Christine Byrne Poetry and Translations Panelist Last night I dreamt I was Benjamin Braddock two years after The Graduate. And this is how it went: So Elaine left me. Happy Valentine’s Day! It was basically inevitable—the whole dating your ex-lover’s-daughter situation ending explosively.

    The Downfall of Being Inspired by TV Authors: Why Carrie Bradshaw is a Really Bad Writer

    February 13, 2019
    Bailey Shea Non-fiction and Multimedia Panel Editor, Arts Liason  As a wannabe writer, the idea of seeing my potential future on TV is comforting. After realizing the entirety of Sex and the City was available on Amazon Prime, I was excited by the opportunity to watch the unedited series. During my first binge of the… More The Downfall of Being Inspired by TV Authors: Why Carrie Bradshaw is a Really Bad WriterRead More »

    Hannah L. Desrosiers, Non-Fiction and Multimedia Panelist  Okay, I’ve heard a ton about how the fans of Game of Thrones have been waiting forever (since 2011, but really it’s forever) for the next book to come out. Well, to the fans of a lesser-known but even better series who have also been waiting that exact… More Christopher Paolini Comes Out of HidingRead More »
